Is Harry Styles abandoning his music career to pursue his acting ambitions?

In a stunning mid-credit entrance, the 28-year-old former One Direction star makes his Marvel debut as a superhero in the 2021 fantasy action-adventure film "Eternals."

The "Watermelon Sugar" hitmaker is apparently slated to make a huge comeback into the Marvel Cinematic Universe as an action hero who will utilize his power to rescue the world, which is exciting news for fans who want to see more of his performances on screens.

According to The Sun, Styles is preparing to make his dramatic return to the MCU on a grander scale, as he is expected to sign a $100 million agreement to create five additional films with the studio.

Styles would also be seen reprising his role as Eros, also known as Starfox and Thanos' brother.

According to an insider, the studio is contemplating signing the singer-actor to as many as five film projects.

A Los Angeles-based film expert said Marvel Studios has had Harry Styles on its radar for the past 18 months.

"Not only is he the largest pop star right now, but his star is so massive that it transcends movies and music."

Concerning the enigmatic film appearance of the "Don't Worry Darling" actor, he believed I might bring in more worldwide viewers in terms of demographics.

"Harry has the Midas touch and will be a tremendous thing bringing in other audiences and demonstrating his skill to elder comic book lovers."

According to the insider, with two new films coming out this year, Harry Styles is likely to become one of Hollywood's most in-demand leading males, and the contract for him will be substantial.

As of this writing, Marvel Studios has not officially confirmed the five alleged films starring Harry Styles. Still, one thing is certain: his character as Eros will return, as confirmed by Kevin Feige.

In an interview with MTV News (via Billboard) last week at Comic-Con, Kevin stated of the upcoming film starring Styles, "The Adventures of Eros and Pip is incredibly exciting for us."

The Marvel boss also stated, "With the announcement of Daredevil and, of course, Spidey, we've moved into the realm of street-level heroes. Also, cosmic. That is also where our buddies Eros and Pip reside."
